Lord Martin defends no-win no-fee libel lawyers

	Quote: The lawyers gave people justice, and a law was needed instead which "insists on responsible journalism", he said.

B0llocks, it's been abused left, right and centre by everyone from dodgy solicitors to private companies and the rich and famous...

How about when they did get their facts right and you tried to shut them down under libel laws and the implied threat of action? :roll:
